Tall Cup Hero Arts Caffeine Fix

June 22, 2016 by Cindy C. 31 Comments

Happy Wednesday everybody,

Have you have your cup of morning coffee or tea yet? During these warm days I am thinking about cold drinks and those crazy straws. Hence the inspiration of today’s card. I made a shape card featuring the tall cup with foam in the Hero Arts Caffeine Fix Digital Kit. I am going to link up the card to the 2016 Summer Coffee Lover’s Blog Hop.

My process:

Resize the tall cup with foam and print it on pattern paper (from the BasicGrey Picadilly 6×6 pad, it has butterflies, birds, and garden things, so it speaks summer to me) and trim closely.
On white card stock trace the cup and trim without the handle and score just below the foam. This is the back panel of the card.
Select and print just the foam on white card stock and trim.
Cut a piece of stripe pattern paper to make straw.
Stamp speech bubble sentiment in Chipped Sapphire and heat emboss with clear powder on same paper. Cut it using the matching die. Cut a second piece for the back. Glue the front and back speech bubble onto the straw. Voila! This is the crazy straw element of my card!
Glue all front and back panels, glue straw, and the foam piece on the top. I added Wink of Stella on the foam but it’s not showing up in the photo.
